The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 308 A Close Call: Parasite (Part Two)

"The Myriad Manifestations of the Universe!"

Feng Ling raised the Fire-Tipped Spear high, his inner power of ghosts and gods surging and flowing into his arm meridians. Towering ancient trees rose from the ground, forming sharp spikes that crashed towards the opponent's face.

"Huh, stubborn!"

The woman in palace attire's expression changed slightly. As she let out a shrill cry, thousands of gray-white giant pythons rose up behind her, descending from the sky like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

In the next instant, thousands of pythons collided with the ancient trees with a deafening roar, the gray-white and dark green lights reflecting off each other, and the entire world was filled with a piercing buzzing sound.

The giant python flicks its tongue in various ways, sometimes coiling and twisting, sometimes tearing with its fangs, and sometimes occasionally opening its mouth to spew out a cloud of foul-smelling grayish-white poisonous mist.

Large swaths of ancient trees withered their trunks, their branches turning into wood chips that flew into the toxic fog and decayed.

However, as long as the main trunk of the ancient tree is still there, it can still flourish again like a withered tree coming back to life under the blessing of the Myriad Manifestations Mantra, so the size of the ancient tree group has not decreased significantly.

"Boom, boom boom—"

Suddenly, the parasitic Qinglan disappeared from the sky, and thousands of giant pythons turned into gray-white clouds of gas, which simultaneously fell into the ancient tree grove and exploded.

The shocking scene was like lotuses from hell blooming on earth, both corroding and destroying everything in their path and mercilessly taking its own life.

Large swaths of ancient trees began to collapse and dissolve from their trunks, causing the size of the ancient tree groves to shrink dramatically. Ultimately, very few ancient trees remained intact.

Clearly, Feng Ling had been greatly exhausted from that round of large-scale, self-destructive attacks. Yet, he was full of energy, carefully sensing the changes in his surroundings.

"Whoosh!" The shadows of the trees swayed all around, and a dark figure moved stealthily among them, suddenly emerging from a shadow beside Feng Ling to attack.

A close-quarters sneak attack?

Sensing this, Feng Ling turned around and snorted coldly. The surface of the Fire-Tipped Spear was covered with a layer of earthy yellow halo, and he smashed it towards the dark figure.

Whether it's a sneak attack or close combat, Feng Ling is quite skilled in both, and he certainly won't be defeated or suffer a loss in either of these areas.

"Bang! Bang!"

With a series of booming sounds, the two figures moved swiftly between the sky and the ground, and the battle gradually intensified.

"Thick Earth Strike Technique!"

"Flaming Divine Spear Technique!"

……

Feng Ling's shouts continued incessantly, his moves came one after another, and his attacks became increasingly fierce, forcing Ji Sheng Qing Lan to retreat repeatedly.

As the saying goes, one should strike while the iron is hot, but the momentum will wane after a second attempt and be completely exhausted after a third. The reason he frequently used his powerful moves from the very beginning was to seize the initiative, firmly control the situation, and leave the opponent no room to maneuver.

However, there is still a significant gap in their cultivation levels, which cannot be bridged simply by relying on superior offensive power.

Feng Ling naturally understood this. He suddenly blasted the parasitic ghost several feet away with his spear, then turned and charged towards the gray-white light barrier, already planning to retreat.

"Ah, damn it!"

The parasitic ghost roared and howled, feeling extremely frustrated.

She had planned to use her speed advantage to launch a sneak attack on Feng Ling, but instead of succeeding, she was caught off guard and relentlessly pursued by Feng Ling.

What should have been a surprise attack plan was forced into this close-quarters combat. Anyone would be furious if they were in this situation.

"boom!!"

Ignoring the parasite's anger, a cold glint suddenly appeared at the tip of Feng Ling Fire-Tipped Spear.

Cracks appeared on the gray-white light screen, which then shattered under the heavy blow of the gun. Feng Ling rushed out of the spatial blockade at an extremely fast speed.

The Thick Earth Heavy Spear Technique specializes in breaking through a surface with a single point, making it most suitable for breaking barriers. Although Feng Ling rarely uses it, it can often produce remarkable effects when combined with the Thick Earth Heavy Strike Technique in specific situations.

"Want to escape?"

Wang Qing saw the man in black transform into a streak of light and shoot towards the azure barrier. The parasitic ghost bowed and snorted coldly, its figure soaring into the sky like a cannonball.

A deafening roar echoed through the sky as two streaks of light chased each other relentlessly, their speed so fast it could be described as lightning.

The azure light curtain was right in front of him, and waves of air rolled out behind Feng Ling. He thought he was fast enough, and subconsciously turned his head to glance at it.

Unexpectedly, the parasite, in its enraged state, was even faster, leaving a long trail of sonic booms in its wake. In just a few seconds, it closed the distance of 100 meters to less than ten meters.

"Hiss!" Feng Ling gasped. This distance was far from safe, not to mention that the other party was approaching at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Who knows, she might catch up with us in the next second!

Sure enough, the moment Feng Ling's figure passed through the azure light curtain, his ankle was covered by a grayish-white light, and a bone-chilling pain came.

The next instant, a deafening roar shook the heavens. The parasitic ghost emerged from the gray-white light, its bloodthirsty claws still in a grasping position, clearly indicating that its attack had missed.

……

At the bottom of the dark Potianze Marsh, a group of fish and shrimp that were swimming happily suddenly scattered in fright.

A man in black emerged from the azure light barrier, which then flickered, preventing the figure that followed from roaring out.

"Disperse!" The parasitic ghost attacked the main spiral barrier frantically. Feng Ling ignored the icy cold of the lake water and endured the excruciating pain to dispel the corrosive gas cloud at his ankle.

The scratches caused by the ghost claws stopped bleeding and scabbed over immediately, eventually falling off as faint white marks.

After doing all this, Feng Ling glanced at the parasitic ghost that seemed to be going crazy and had blasted the barrier into a distorted shape, and then sped away towards the surface of Potianze Lake.

After a short while, the azure light screen malfunctioned briefly amidst a deafening explosion, creating several narrow gaps that allowed a large amount of lake water to flood in.

"Bang! Bang!"

A fierce wind arose in Potianze, and a woman in palace attire burst forth from the bottom of the lake, creating a towering wave.

The raging torrent shattered into strings of raindrops, and the parasitic ghost brushed its wet, black hair aside, sniffed the air, and then squinted in a certain direction, coldly snorting, "Prey, you can't escape!"

An incense stick's time after the parasitic ghost left, a figure emerged like a ghost from the forest at the edge of Potianze Lake, and with a splash, plunged into the bottom of the lake.

"Collect!" At the bottom of the lake, the azure light curtain enveloped the space within, which continued to shrink until it finally transformed into a pillar of light and merged into Feng Ling's body, disappearing without a trace.

"call!"

Having absorbed the main spiral barrier, Feng Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had anticipated that the main spiral barrier couldn't trap the parasitic ghost indefinitely. If he had forcibly absorbed the main spiral barrier into his body earlier, he would likely have been seriously injured when the parasitic ghost broke free.

Although there are as many as nine passages leading to the core area, Feng Ling was unwilling to abandon the main spiral realm and leave after finally finding one that could accompany him.

Therefore, he deliberately created the illusion of escaping, and used the technique of creating a clone to lure the tiger away from the mountain, which was how he successfully lured away the parasitic ghost.

"The Eight Great Epic Inheritances, here I come!" His figure disappeared into the dark current, and Feng Ling's eyes shone brightly. He was confident that if he obtained all the inheritances and unsealed the power of the formation, the Parasitic Ghost would be no match for him.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to find the inheritance, and then find a way to get rid of the parasitic ghost so that one's cultivation can advance further. In this way, entering the Nine Infant Palace to find the Resurrection Grass will also ensure that one's life is not in danger.

"Bam—"

A hundred miles away, thick black smoke billowed.

A black-robed energy being crashed into the jungle. It not only possessed the same aura as Feng Ling, but also the same face.

"Ah! You dare to play me?" The parasitic ghost was furious. It flung out a ball of grayish-white energy with its sleeve and sped off towards Potianze without looking back.

"Sizzle, sizzle!"

The energy body had barely stood up when it was enveloped and corroded by the gray-white gas cloud and vanished completely.

Returning to Potianze, the parasitic ghost found the lakebed deserted and empty, and, enraged, bared its teeth and vented its anger haphazardly in the lake.

She wished she could destroy the entire Potianze!

"Ghost Ancestor, calm down! Calm down!"

Suddenly, a level 12 legendary water ghost emerged from the bottom of the lake, howling in pain. It was holding its head, spinning around, and gushing water to breathe, as if it had almost suffocated from lack of oxygen.

If it really drowned, it would probably be the most pathetic water ghost to die in history.

"Hmm? This Potianze is rich in water element, and I didn't even notice that there was a water ghost hiding here!"

The parasitic ghost frowned slightly, beckoned from afar, and easily grabbed the water ghost by the neck: "Tell me quickly, where did the black-clad man who took the bottom of the lake go?"

"Ghost Ancestor, spare me! Before that man left, he seemed to say he was going to search for some of the Eight Great Inheritances..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the water ghost trembled and let out a strange cry before turning into a cloud of black mist and merging into the mouth of the parasitic ghost, which then let out a burp.

"Hmph, you want to find the inheritance of the eight epic powerhouses?" The parasitic ghost's face was full of gloom, as if he had thought of something interesting.

She immediately tore off her mask, transformed herself, and gave a sinister smile as she gazed at the distant night sky.

"Ah!"

Thousands of miles away,

Feng Ling shivered inexplicably.

Every time a creature hatches, it's a new beginning...

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages offer you a pure land for your souls.
